As a therapist, my goal is to provide you with a safe, supportive, non-judgmental space in which you can share, explore, and achieve greater self-awareness. Together, we will build on the strengths you already possess to help you grow and find balance. My style of therapy is a conversational, collaborative approach aimed at helping people understand themselves better.

My expertise is in COVID-19 Pandemic Grief, grief and loss, depression, anxiety, and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD).
Grief and loss are normal and immensely painful emotions, often obtained by life-changing events such as the loss of a loved one, the end of a significant relationship, or a drastic change in life circumstances. It can manifest in various forms - emotional, physical, cognitive, behavioral, social, and spiritual. Grief and loss are deeply personal and unique, influenced by their personality, coping style, life experiences, and cultural and religious beliefs. As an experienced Grief Coach, I provide compassionate and tailored support. I offer a nurturing environment that fosters understanding and promotes healing.

I am trained in EMDR, a therapeutic technique used for anxiety or distress from trauma, but also use traditional talk therapy, play therapy, family therapy, ERP, or even Telehealth video sessions.
People need solutions that work in real life! What truly inspires me is witnessing people who initially come to therapy feeling lost, challenged, or confused, and as we work together, I see them find the courage and strength to change! Often this means learning new skills/behaviors, developing healthier patterns, or discovering inner strengths. Helping people discover that life can be different is rewarding - whether it's a kid struggling at school, a person struggling with depression or anxiety, a life stressor, or a past traumatic event - we can tackle it and help you (or your child) re-write or edit this story.

I firmly believe everyone does things in their own unique way and time so honing in on self-identified strengths assists me with helping clients improve upon what they may consider their "challenges". I also assist my clients with getting in tune with those hidden strengths they may be unaware of. The hardest part of therapy is getting started. Book a session and take a chance. It is the only way to be the change you wish to see.

Trauma and PTSD Therapists

When should I seek treatment for trauma?

Not everyone who undergoes trauma needs therapy to heal, but many do. If, after experiencing a traumatic event, you find yourself struggling with symptoms such as nightmares, dissociation, irritability, or emotional numbness—especially if these symptoms last more than a month and are severe enough to interfere with your daily functioning—you may benefit from seeking out therapy with a trauma-informed provider.

How long does trauma therapy take?

Different types of therapy for trauma unfold on different timelines. Prolonged exposure therapy and cognitive processing therapy, for example, each take about three months, while trauma-informed CBT may last anywhere from 8 to 25 sessions. Other approaches, especially those that are less structured or that incorporate elements from multiple modalities, may be more open-ended, though many patients report feeling better within the first few months of treatment.

What happens if trauma is left untreated?

Unaddressed trauma can have serious—even devastating—effects on relationships, career, and day-to-day functioning. Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) can lead people to distrust or lash out at others, making it difficult to maintain intimate relationships; it can also trigger symptoms such as flashbacks or hyperreactivity that can interfere with a person’s ability to function effectively, personally and/or professionally. Some sufferers turn to drugs to find relief. Symptoms may lessen on their own with time, but there is no guarantee that PTSD will resolve on its own.

Can PTSD come back after treatment?

It is possible for PTSD symptoms to recur months or years after successful treatment. This is because, like most mental health disorders, it is not possible to “cure” PTSD, and stressful life events may cause symptoms to recur in even the most resilient individuals. There is no shame in re-experiencing PTSD symptoms nor in returning to therapy when such relapses occur; indeed, many forms of trauma therapy explicitly encourage periodic “maintenance sessions” to reinforce coping skills and ensure that symptoms stay manageable.
